Your beginner tutorial made me from a novice to a guru in illustrator, thank you very, Watched and did all the assignments

[@Golden_Kelsi]

Hey, Dan! You are very nice teacher! I like your gentle voice even though it make me wanna sleep, lol but your lesson helped me a lot. Thanks~!!

[@anouarelmjabber9922]

Thank you Dan for putting all that time and effort !

[@Illianor123]

These courses have been really good. Learning lots, and even if I know how to do something already, there is a little shortcut or alternate way of doing it. Very helpful. Also, great voice and presentation.

[@envatotuts]

Glad you like them!

[@Karekarandassociates]

U r god ... best video ever seen.. no nonsense at all.. precise to the point

[@mauveesone]

Mind blown, Still learning more from your channel vs. My college instructors

[@zitamayzasukma7163]

I've been looking for this for a very long time!

[@Poukibear]

I loved this video and wanted to sincerely thank you for it. I learned so much. What I liked was that you repeated the steps more than once. It is hard to remember what it is like to learn a program for the first time and repetition is sooooooo important. If I miss a step or forget how I did it, you repeat it. Please keep doing this. My only suggestion is that you make the videos at a higher volume. It is fine on headphones but for a laptop, not nearly loud enough even at full volume on my PC and in youtube! Thanks so much!

[@coronamichael21]

When you learn more from this video than every class at my university.

[@pumpkinlover2102]

lol straight facts. im using this vid to teach myself how to do something for a uni project

Hey! I've been seeing the "drippy" kind of effect like in this video's thumbnail lately. I really like the look of it, and I can't help but think there must be a good way to achieve that effect. Do you know where I could find out more about that style?

just FYI, adobe CS 5 also has the width tool, along with the path eraser tool which I've seen several tutorials saying they were exclusive to CC.

[@452MXoutlaw]

For global colors, do you need to have CC?

Hi, there is a heart shape in AI cc, (in symbols-web icons)

[@narendra672]

[@suzannewaters6114]

What an amazing teacher you are Dan, Im new to Adobe apps and learning so much! Curious where did you get that Gotham Bold font? I dont have it. Not in the Find More either. Maybe a purchase you made? I know I can just use another for the tutorial but wondering if Im supposed to have it in my CC?? Thanks again and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

[@zizijones3081]

Hi You are brilliant, I have learnt a lot from your tutorial this one and the other video which is called How to use the basic tool in Adobe Illustrator. I have been trying to use direct selection tool to round the edges of a shape, the points inside the shape does not come up like on yr demonstration, therefore I cannot round the shape...Please let me know how to do it step by step if you do not mind. One more thing is where can I find Command key on my HP Laptop please....
